Whispers

Brian J. Stucke recently pleaded guilty to criminal conspiracy fraud charges filed by the U.S. Attorney's Office for the District Court for the Southern District of Ohio, under a plea agreement. Last week, the Securities and Exchange Commission filed a civil injunctive action against Stucke. Stucke is the second former NCFE staffer to enter a plea with the U.S. Attorney's Office and the second to be charged by the SEC. The first was Sherry L. Gibson, Stucke's former supervisor. Currently, there are at least five additional unnamed co-conspirators under investigation by the U.S. Attorney's Office and the SEC (see p. 6).
